  1. Available in Foodland. I don't know the other products so I can't comment about their availability. In general, I suggest look in Foodland, Tops, Villa Market.
  2. Just use the build in task manager. It shows all the important information. There is no need to install another program for that.
  3. I worked with one electrician company in Bangkok, mostly for network cabling. They also do electrical installations. Great quality, and they charge a lot more than most of us would expect in Thailand. Because they do a lot better work than most of us would expect here.
  4. And do you have any updates to this thread after 7 pages? I have to admit I like interesting threads, but I don't like when the people who start it never return...
  5. Did they find already someone who is qualified to do those checks?
  6. Then, at least if you run Windows, that is normal when you switch on the PC. Windows takes ages to check for updates, download updates, install updates, and maybe again the same. I suggest switch it on, make sure it doesn't go to sleep, and wait and hour. Then maybe restart and maybe do it again. And then all should be fine. Mostly I work on my desktop. Whenever I know I will use my notebook then I do this procedure hours before I have to actually use it. Then it is back to 0% CPU when I need to use it. I would switch it on and let it update at least once per month so that this procedure doesn't take forever.
  7. How old is that PC? Windows 8 was released in 2012, 11 years ago. Maybe it's time to retire that old PC and get a new one.
  8. Thanks I know I asked for online but on that web page they also write about getting the insurance at 7/11. That is probably the most convenient for me.
  9. Or the cameras are all fixed to 150cm height. ????
  10. Did this premier candidate ever talk about anything else? One could almost think she only has that job because of her father...
  11. Thanks. I just read it and I wouldn't sign it. Farang is fully responsible for any fraud...
  12. I can't be sure but I think that is unlikely. The idea seems to be (online) fraud prevention so that people don't transfer money to criminals. That is not relevant for incoming money. Or that is the problem of the sending bank.
  13. That's what I thought...
  14. It would be interesting to see that document. Will it be in English? Will we be doomed if we sign it. Most of the time I can live with the 50k limit. I am relucent to sign something like that.
  15. A farang friend check with his bank, I think SCB. They told him facial recognition is not working/used with farangs in the moment. Farangs can have 50k limit or they can sign a form in the bank to have (I am not sure) no limit or a very high limit.
  16. Until now I always renewed my motorcycle basic government insurance at a dealership where I bought a bike. I just called the boss but now he is not in charge anymore. Is there an online option like a website or an app to get/renew the basic insurance? Or do I have to go to a "shop"?
  17. He has (for old people in Germany free) government health insurance. But that is only valid in Germany, or by now probably in the EU. It is not valid in Thailand. Probably in his old age he won't be able to get a long-term health insurance for Thailand, and if he would be able to get it, then it would be very expensive. That is the same problem for many old people.
  18. Why do you have it on? For what? Personally I am pretty sure that the NSA and others know anyhow what we write and do. And I don't worry about any Thai ISP checking my torrents or anything like that.
  19. Can you tell me more about that? In which situations do people still expect to see a stamp? And what do they do if there is no stamp (if you know)?
  20. 99%of the time I don't use a VPN. I only use it if I want to look i.e. at the USA amazon page pretending I am over there. I use NordVPN. Until now it does the job.
  21. As far as I know from their doctor. They get it because they have a lot of pain.
  22. Thanks Before I registered the company, I made sure the .com domain was available, and I registered it already. I also checked if the co.th domain is available. I still have to register that. I guess by now I have enough company documents to register it.
  23. My accountant told me the rubber stamp is not necessary (anymore) and she advised me not to have one. So I have no stamp.
  24. Why would anybody give money to a guy on facebook who was not personally recommended or runs and official business? If people want to save money and take shortcuts, then they shouldn't be surprised when this doesn't work - the risk is high.
  25. I am in the process of setting up a Thai Ltd. company. Eventually I will be 49% shareholder and director or the company, with work permit. My long-term Thai gf is the second shareholder. I trust her. (Now a company needs only two shareholders. That changed over time.) I (think I) have a good accountant, who does all the initial work to setup the company, VAT, bank and many more things. There are many many documents to sign, obviously all in Thai. It's not easy to keep the overview. I asked the accountant, and she told me she keeps the original documents, and she scans them, and she keeps copies of the scans in the cloud. So it's unlikely that documents get lost. The question here for me is, which documents, or scans of documents, should I keep myself. I guess there are some important documents. Which? I don't want to keep hundreds of documents without knowing what is what. And I understand that my accountant doesn't translate everything for me. Which documents do you keep and/or check?
